West Berkeley
Bars, breweries, and nightlife in West Berkeley, Berkeley
West Berkeley has become one of the East Bay's real craft-beverage hubs, built on old industrial warehouse space turned into breweries and wineries - BarFinder lists 42 venues here, with breweries and wineries together making up the majority, including Trumer Brewery and Sierra Nevada Torpedo Room. Bison Brewing Company and The Rare Barrel add to a genuinely deep lineup of working beer-makers. It's a scene built for daytime tasting-room hopping among warehouses rather than a traditional bar strip - a fitting match for Berkeley's DIY, craft-focused reputation.
